SID: So Jennifer has a great miracle. She has a relationship with God. God begins answering her prayers. She’s out of jail. Her record just totally disappears. She’s back and reunited with her daughter. She’s making $3000 a week. She has an extraordinary gift for writing. She’s making $3000 a week. And then all of a sudden she loses her job. She’s now making zero a week. She’s on food stamps. That must have been quite a comedown.

JENNIFER: It really was. It was very humiliating, honestly, having to go from having sort of everything to nothing. But what I had was worth more than all the money in the world. At this point, I had Jesus.

SID: Well and because she had a relationship with the Messiah things began to change as you began to pray. Tell me what happened.

JENNIFER: Well I began, as I said, to devour the Word and I never stopped. I began to meditate on the Word, and I began to put the Word into practice. And it’s one thing to read the Word and it’s another to study the Word. But when we put our action on the Word, that’s when we begin to see results, and that’s what I did. I plugged into a good church, I got equipped and I began to take the Word at face value. You know, if the Word says it, I believe that’s what it means.

SID: Well speaking of the Word saying it, one day, God speaks to you and He says to you, you’re robbing me. What did He mean?

JENNIFER: Yeah. I was living, very little money at the time. But what I did have I was generous. I would let people borrow it. And they kept stealing it from me. I wouldn’t be able to pay a bill because someone had taken the money that I lent to them. And I was really very angry and annoyed. And I was down on my couch on my knees, and I said, “God, you know, what is going on with this? I’m generous, I’m trying to help people. What is going on? I’m tired of all these people robbing from me.” And I heard the still small voice, and my heart says, “Well stop robbing from me.” And it was then that I learned really to tithe, to give the 10 percent to God. And I tell you when I did that, Sid, things slowly, it didn’t happen overnight, but step by step, began to turn around for me.

SID: Well give me kind of a review of what’s going on with you right now about the turnaround. How many books have you published? Have you ever seen those books for dummies in bookstores? She’s written a couple of them. Tell me about that.

JENNIFER: I’ve written several of those now, and those were the first books that I began to write long before I began to write religious books. And so I’ve written a number of those. I’ve now written eight Christian books on top of that. And God has taken the gift within me and used to bring increase and to bring prosperity into my life, and He’ll do the same thing for anybody.

SID: Okay. Tell me about the oceanfront condo. I mean, from food stamps to an oceanfront condo. Tell me about that.

JENNIFER: It’s really supernatural. What happened was I began to understand the law of confession, and I’m not talking about the name and claim it. I’m talking about standing in line with what God’s Word says. And so I began, I had a desire in my heart. I wanted an oceanfront condo. And so I began to confess: I have an oceanfront condo and it is paid for, back in 2005. I have an oceanfront condo and it is paid for. And I just, everyday, I had a list of confessions and I would read that. At the same time I would tithe, I would give offerings and I would work hard. And sure enough, within five years I have an oceanfront condo. And guess what?

SID: What?

JENNIFER: It’s paid for.

SID: I like that. How would you like that? Anything God will do for her, God will do for you. But let me ask you something. You struggled with fear and doubt, and unbelief. What did God show you about doubt and unbelief?

JENNIFER: God showed me a couple of things. Doubt is the doorway to unbelief, and unbelief will lead to fear. But the Holy Spirit showed me something even last night. He said, “The battle is in the mind, but the war is for your heart.” And the reason why is because—

SID: Wait a second. Explain that first.

JENNIFER: The battle is in the mind. So we have thoughts. The enemy launches his fiery darts. And really the battle is in the mind. It’s the thought, it’s the imaginations, it’s the suggestions that we hear: well you’ll never prosper, well you’ll never be healed, well you’ll never do this or that. And that’s the enemy bringing doubt, causing you to bring doubt that you will doubt God’s Word. See the battle is in the mind, but the war is for your heart. See, because the Bible says that we believe with our heart and we don’t believe with our mind. Believing with our mind is simply mental ascent. But believing with our heart, having pure faith in our heart, that is where the miracles happen.

SID: We’re going to come back in a moment and I want you to share the revelation that she had of how to believe with all of your heart, because that’s the reason that many of you are not having your prayers answered. There’s fear, there’s doubt, there’s unbelief. And even though you say, I believe, you really aren’t believing in your heart. We’ll be right back.

Sid: I am really overwhelmed of the value of this brand new tool Mike Shreve that you’ve just come out with. It’s a book and 4 CD’s called “Sixty-Five Promises from God for Your Child.” I believe that it’s a right on book because on yesterday’s broadcast I was talking to you about our school system, education system where there calling black white, they’re doing the opposite of God’s word. By the time someone graduates from college and has gone through out school system they will find systematically everything they’ve taught their children under-minded unless they’re undergirded by a faith that is Bible faith it’s not hope, it’s not struggling, it’s absolute knowing. And that’s why you’re book, you’ve researched it, you’ve used it on your own family; you’ve gotten so many testimonies of people that have heard your teaching and they’re finding miraculous results going on. I’ll tell you, share one quick testimony of someone that has used your teaching with their children or grandchildren.

Mike: Well, I got an email recently from a woman who knows you very well, in fact twenty years ago you witnessed to her husband in an airport up in Baltimore and he came to the Lord. And because of the kind of life that he was before he got saved it affected the children in that family. The son became a heroin addict, but this woman became familiar with a particular revelation that God’s given me and she began praying the promises over her son who was a heroin addict and he was all messed up in a lot of ways couldn’t hold down a job just totally rebellious. Now she emailed me and she said “He’s off of heroin completely, he’s got a job a great job,” and she’s just believing God to do even more miracles in his life. And so but she began claiming promises like Deuteronomy 30 verse 6 where God said “I will circumcise your heart and the heart of your seed to love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul so you may live.” You cannot legislate love; you can’t force anyone to love a concept, to love God, to love you. You can’t make a child love you nor can you make a child love God. But God said, “You claim this promise Deuteronomy 30 verse 6 I will circumcise your heart and the heart of your seed.” Which to me means that God will cut away the worldly influence, the negative peer pressure; He’ll circumcise the heart, he’ll cut away, He’ll peel away the carnality that rules the fallen nature, and that He will implant within that child genuine love for God. And she began claiming that promise and it wasn’t I guess it was about a year she kept praying, and it doesn’t always happen overnight, but he got off of heroin, God changed his life.

Sid: Would you explain for those because it’s a brand new book and it’s just literally off the press, would you explain what is accomplished in this book and the 4 CDs.

Mike: Well I believe it’s a major assault against the enemy on a battlefield that every parent knows very well. Because there is well, we have history of how for instance the enemy through Pharaoh tried to destroy Moses’ generation in order to prevent the seed that would come to bring deliverance. And I believe the enemy has an orchestrated plan right now to destroy this generation with witchcraft, perversion, with all kinds of dark agendas. So we have to go to business with warring against the adversary. The way you wind a battle with demonic forces is the words. That’s how Jesus fought the devil He would say “It is written, you don’t fight with your emotions, you don’t fight with logic, you fight with the word of God and when you find the specific promises, sixty-five promises that God’s given to our children, and you begin to wage warfare with those promises it definitely has an impact in the Spirit realm. One of my favorite promises for backslidden children is Proverbs 11:21 “The seed of the righteous shall be delivered.” The whole verse says “Though hand join in hand the wicked shall not go unpunished but the seed of the righteous shall be delivered.” And when a parent who has a backslidden bound, up child that is all bound up in the world and in sin begins to speak that over the their lives I believe that it disintegrates the yoke eventually. The word of God will prevail in that child’s behalf.

Sid: Well, I have your book open I just opened it at random let me explain what I’m seeing; here is, and these again are 65 verses; you should have one book for your children and grandchildren and in some cases if you have great grandchildren. First of all you have the scripture for salvation. “Believe on the Lord Jesus and you will be saved, you and your household.” Then you do very anointed teaching on this scripture so that someone will believe this they just won’t be saying words out in the atmosphere it will be from a heartfelt conviction. And then you have, you’ve written the prayer for them and then you have a space form them to actually insert their child or their grandchild or great-grand child’s name. And I can picture every day I’m looking at the gentleman that produces our television show Warren Marcus and I know he has children, and I know that he has grandchildren. I can see him getting one of these books and putting his daughters name, his son’s name, his grandchildren’s name and every day getting up early and sowing into his children and grandchildren something that money can’t buy. And you know these 4 CDs that you’ve done Mike, God has given you such a supernatural level of belief from seeing what God did in your own family from the thousands of positive feedback from different people from all walks of life and all situations that have done this. In fact I got to ask you a question, your son who was supposed to have mental damage and had such a traumatic birth. And your daughter that was supposed…they wanted you to abort her and now you see them today and now you see them better than normal you see children of Godly parents should be way beyond normal. They should be extraordinary and tell me about when your son was 4 years old he had a dream about heaven.

Mike: Oh yes, that fits in with the promise “All you shall be taught by the Lord and great shall be the peace of your children.” One morning my son came down from his bedroom and he said “Mommy, daddy I died in my sleep last night and met Jesus and He showed me around Heaven.” And of course he didn’t die but that’s how he interpreted it because it seemed to him as he had left his body and went to Heaven. And he used words that were adult words. For instance he said “Jesus told him not to ever watch bad television and to always have compassion for all people.” He looked at me quizzically and he said “Daddy what does compassion mean?”

Sid: At four of course he doesn’t know what that word means.

Mike: Yeah the very fact that he didn’t know what the word meant let me know that it was a legitimate experience and I told him I said, “Well, that’s love feels the suffering of other people.” And so that was a real transformational experience for him. I had been claiming that passage of scripture. I’ve always searched through the promises of God there’s 7,487 promises in the Bible from Genesis to Revelation, but there’s 65 that belong to our children. And one of my favorites is Deuteronomy 7:9 where the Bible says “He is a faithful God who keeps covenant and mercy with them that love him to a thousand generations.” A generation is either 40 years or a 100 years; there’s controversy on that. Well if it’s 40,000 years we don’t have that much time but God says for 40 millennia there will be hovering over of covenant and mercy over those that had come forth from your family-line long before you will be forgotten there will be people in this world with a reservoir of mercy hovering over their lives, if you’re in a relationship, a submitted relationship with God. And so if the impact last that long it’s certainly going to hover over my sons, and daughters my grandsons, my granddaughters.

Sid: Just very briefly you prayed this way with your daughter for a month for her to receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit. At age 6 briefly what happened to her?

Mike: Well, actually I prayed a very specific verse or two verses Isaiah 44 verses 3 and 4. Where God said “I will pour water on him who is thirsty and floods on the dry ground and I will pour My Spirit on your descendants and my blessing on your offspring.” Well I began to confess the promise over her, she was 5 years old at the time. She was in one of my meetings where I was preaching and that night she fell out under the power of God was overwhelmed by the Spirit she crawled up in my arms and spoke in tongues for about 45 minutes and then she looked at me with tears streaming down out of her eyes and she said “Oh daddy Jesus filled me,” now would that have happened had I not claimed the promise? I’m not so sure, there is such a power in knowing these promises and claiming them…

SID: Hello, Sid Roth here with Ron and Glenda Pettey. Ron dies on the operating table. He’s instantly in heaven. There’s a registration desk. An angel looks through the book. His name is not there. He causes, as he says, a ruckus. I don’t blame him. I would cause a ruckus too. But Ron, there were people on earth praying for you. Tell me about that.

RON: There was a lot of, what I’m calling, confusion in heaven. I had it thought of as a quiet, serene, beautiful place, and when I got there, it was a lot of noise, like walking into a large auditorium. A large auditorium and hearing everybody talk at one time. And I didn’t understand what it was. The person behind this desk asked me…

GLENDA: I think you asked him, “What is all this noise?”

RON: Yeah, and this person behind the desk said “Don’t you know?”

RON: I said “No, I don’t. Tell me what it is.” These were all intercessory prayers coming up on my behalf.

SID: So all the noise that you were hearing were people praying for you to not die.

GLENDA: Right.

RON: In disbelief, I said “You’ve got to be kidding me. I don’t know this many people.” The person behind the desk said “Would you like to hear one?” A prayer was drawn out. I was drawn to it, basically, and I heard every word that man was praying. And it was verified, because I think two Sundays before, they had started recording their messages, and it was all on tape.

SID: So when you heard it, it was word-for-word? Actually, as I understand it from the book,
you said the prayer, and then you listened to it? Is that what happened?

GLENDA: Exactly. That’s exactly what happened. So Mabry Cain, our friend, said “Well we prayed for you a lot of times. I don’t remember a particular time.” So Ron explained again, said the prayer, quoted him an exact phrase, which was a unique phrase, and then they found the tape, and it matched exactly. SID: You had so many wonderful experiences in heaven. One had to do with, you had a stillborn baby. Tell me about that.

RON: I’ll let… Ok. I’m sorry.

GLENDA: Ron relives his testimony, his story, every time we’re asked to share it. And that’s a very difficult part. He heard children’s voices, and one child’s voice was drawn out above the others. He tried to walk near to this barrier, but he could not pass through. He could not see the children, he could hear them playing as if playing in water, a stream. They sounded very happy. But he immediately knew that voice drawn out was our son, Jason. And as you walked toward the wall, or the barrier…

RON: This very large, authoritative angel stood in my way; put his hand over my face. It was a large hand, because it covered my entire face. He said “He’s fine, he’s taken care of. Now move back.” And I did. I moved back to the table where my name wasn’t in the book. I moved back to that table.

SID: Glenda, the thing in his story… It’s an overwhelming story, about the children in heaven.

GLENDA: Right. The next scene Ron was aware of were many thousands of people walking in the same direction. It was a corridor of people. Ron looked ahead to see where they were going, and Jesus was there, seeming to receive them. The majority of the people were children, children of all sizes and ages, with adults sprinkled throughout the crowd. You also saw children carrying something in their hands.

RON: What these children were carrying were other children. What I saw was not other children, I saw a miniature adult in their hands; what these children would’ve become if they’d have not been aborted or stillborn.

SID: Ron, you made eye contact with a young man in heaven. Tell me about that. It was very significant.

RON: This young man, almost in a mischievous way, said “I made it, I made it, I made it. And you didn’t.”

GLENDA: As he was walking along in the crowd, you made eye contact.

RON: He walked up to the Lord. Now the Lord was there. He passed through the Lord into heaven. I just… The Bible just came alive, because it says the only way to enter into heaven is through Jesus Christ Himself. That’s the only way.

SID: And what did the Lord tell you about this young man?

RON: He said…

GLENDA: Two words.

RON: Two words: “Remember this.” I thought I was supposed to remember that young man, and I would never forget him. I still don’t, to this day.

SID: But there was a reason that Jesus said that, and it’s so amazing. Don’t go away, we’ll be right back after this word.

On It’s Supernatural: Julie True is releasing the sounds of heaven through the music that God gives her. When people hear Julie’s music, they experience peace and rest. The supernatural becomes normal, and many experience the presence of angels.

Do angels exist? Are healing miracles real? Is there life after death? Can people get supernatural help from another dimension? Has the future been written in advance? Sid Roth has spent 25 years researching the strange world of the supernatural. Join Sid on this edition of It’s Supernatural.

SID: Hello, Sid Roth here. Welcome to my world, where it’s naturally supernatural. I had an experience with Julie True. I was interviewing her on radio, and after I interviewed her, there was a tangible… I don’t mean just something in my mind, I mean tangible. You could touch it. It was peace. She has found that when she sings, there’s like a portal from heaven coming to earth, flooding people. In this world, the way… I mean just be human. Just breathe a few times and you’ll find challenges in this world. Challenges in the economy. Challenges with traffic. Challenges with family. Challenges with finance. Just plain challenges.

If you could just bask in that presence… It’s the presence of God, is what it is. Julie, I don’t think you can answer this question, but I have to ask you anyway. How come this happens when you sing?

JULIE: When I get quiet and still and start to sing, I always feel the peace of God.

SID ROTH: You know what’s so amazing? It’s sort of like, every one of us has gifts inside of us. Like the last thing in the world I ever wanted to do was be on television behind a microphone. Absolute last thing in the world. But, through circumstances, I found myself in that position. But it’s almost as if we get sabotaged in our gifting before we even know we have the gifting. Now Julie, when you went to church and wanted to use – I mean you’re a fabulous musician – you wanted to use an instrument to worship God, what did they tell you?

JULIE: That was not allowed. The way I grew up, it was believed that it was not pleasing to God; that under the New Testament, instruments were not part of that, because it said to sing and make melody in your heart to the Lord.

SID: We had a Hebrew word that explains what you’re saying right now. You know what that Hebrew word is? Mashuga. It means crazy. You’ve got to be crazy. The whole purpose is for us to have intimacy with God and worship God. Your CD, your music – I’m going to use an expression the teens use – is hot.

I mean literally so hot, there was this woman in Canada who got this particular CD before she even…

Now this is hot, before she even… Well, I’ll let you hear it in her words. Let’s go to that.

When I went down to get the mail, there was only one package. As soon as I just opened the corner,

I didn’t even see the CD, the cover of it or anything, the power of God came on me really strong.

I nearly fell on the floor. I was able to get to the chair, to fall on the chair rather than the floor.

I started to weep. It was so incredibly beautiful, it was like a pure and holy weeping. It wasn’t a painful, sorrowful weeping, it was like a healing weeping. I dashed into the living room and put it on my CD player, and when I started to praise the Lord, something else incredible happened to me. I was praising God in a way I never praised God before. It wasn’t in words, but it was in the sound of my voice. It was so different. I knew there were angels. I knew the room was full of angels, and I was kind of afraid to open my eyes,

because the presence of God was all over me. I just felt the love of God, the peace of God, and I just felt so comforted.

SID: Now when you hear that, Julie, that is wild.

JULIE: That is wild. She hadn’t even heard it yet. I mean she had not started playing it yet.

SID: The thing that I find when I listen to your music, I feel so peaceful, I feel so restful. Do you hear this from other people?

JULIE: Yes. Peace and rest, helping people sleep, babies being able to sleep. That’s a big part of the kind of feedback I’ve gotten.

SID: On this CD, you can bottle it, it’s so tangible. You’re going to hear this and experience it for yourself.

SID: A key to understanding the move of God’s spirit is found in the Book of Corinthians, in which God says, “First the natural and then the spiritual.” Watch what God does in the natural. It always has a repercussion on the spiritual. Let me give you some examples. All these major revivals that I’m about ready to tell you about, the biggest the world has ever known, all connected with Israel. For instance, 1897 was the first Zionist Congress. A Zionist believes the Jewish people are entitled to the physical Land of Israel unconditionally, forever. The first Zionist, let’s get it straight, was God, not Theodore Herzl. Right after that came Azusa Street and the Pentecostal revival. 1948, Israel became a nation. You know what happened in ’48? Men and women were touched by the Spirit of God and had tents all over America. Oral Roberts. T.L. Osborn, Kenneth Hagen, all of these people, just raised up instantly. 1967, Jerusalem in Jewish possession. You know what happened? You know what that triggered? Nothing short of the charismatic revival. Isaiah 43:19, and I feel this so strongly, “For I’m about to do something new. See, I’ve already begun. Do you not see it?” What has he begun? The one new man. Let me explain this to you. John 17:21: “And they,” that’s Jew and gentile, “all may be one.” Some people say “they” is Catholics and Baptists, except for one thing. When Jesus said that, they didn’t exist. There were only two people groups: Jews and gentiles. So Jesus said, “I pray that they,” Jews and gentiles, “may be one.” What’s the repercussion? That the world may believe. Somehow it’s a catalyst when these two people groups get together. Their spiritual DNA merges. I’m getting a little ahead of myself because I’m getting excited. You know what happens when these two spiritual DNAs merge? John 17:21, I just read to you. John 17:22, it tells you what happens. Jesus says, “The same glory that is on you will be on them.” You want to see that same glory on you? I want to see that same glory. Ephesians, Chapter 2, Verse 14 and 15, and 22: “For he himself is our peace who has made both Jew and gentile one and is broken down the middle wall of separation.” You see, there was a separation between Jews and gentiles. So here it is in Ephesians 2. I just read 14, 15. Here’s Verse 22: “In whom you also are being built together for a dwelling place of God in the Spirit.” And in Verse 15 it says, “And so as to create in himself one new man from the two, thus making peace.” The Hebrew word for “peace” is completeness. So it’s saying when that occurs, we’re going to make a complete dwelling place of God for God by His spirit. You see the repercussions of what I’m saying about? Now Psalm 122:6, you can understand a major promise. It’s the only city in all of Scripture God commands us to pray for with a special blessing if you’ll do that. He says, “Pray for the peace of Jerusalem.” What’s the Hebrew word for peace? Shalom. What does shalom mean? Completeness. What is completeness? Jew and gentile being one in the Messiah. “Pray for the completeness of Jerusalem.” And it makes a promise, as if we need a promise for this. But God says, “May they,” who’s they, “Jew and gentle prosper.” And in the Hebrew prosper means “heart peace”. How would you like this day and age we’re living in, how would you like heart peace? God says, if you pray for these two people to become one you’re going to have heart peace. That’s His promise to you. Ezekiel 47:9 says in the Amplified, and it’s talking about the River of God, and it says, “Wherever the double river shall go every living creature shall live.” What’s the double river? Jew and gentile. One in Messiah. One in Yeshua. Wherever that double river goes people are going to live. Romans 11:15 says, “If their being castaway is the reconciling of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead.” I believe we’re about on the cutting edge of the greatest move of God’s spirit to cause Jewish people to come to know him, to form the one new man for the release of the greatest miracles the world has ever seen, life from the dead miracles, resurrection life miracles, limbs being restored. That’s what we’re about ready to see. Are you ready to see that? I’m ready to see that. I’m ready to see. Jesus said, “You are going to do the same works that I have done and even greater.” This is the greater. You ready? I’m ready.
